Can filter

OrderOpenTime()

The one older then the last one but younger then all the others, will be the previous last one.

marco

   i want to do  for example

   1  Buy  -5

   2 buy  -4

   3  Buy  -3

   4 buy  -2

   5 Buy  -1

   6 buy  +2

i want to close only 5 order and 6 order because average profit is 1 within 2 orders then both orders close

i have no idea what you mean please make a flow chart.

Like i said you can find the second last order by comparing OrderOpenTime().

Without code i am unable to help you.

   datetime orderopentime[];                 //--- declare array                     
   int orderstotal=OrdersHistoryTotal();     //--- declare orderstotal
   ArrayResize(orderopentime,orderstotal,0); //--- resize array

     {
      //---- check selection result 
      if(OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY)==false)     //--- check result
        {
         Print("Access to history failed with error (",GetLastError(),")");
         break;
        }
      else if(OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY)==true) //--- check result

         //      " Close Price: ",OrderClosePrice());
            
         //--- fill array      
          orderopentime[i]=OrderOpenTime(); //--- fill array     
        } 
     }
  int index;                                                        //--- declare index
  index=ArrayMaximum(orderopentime,WHOLE_ARRAY,0);                  //--- find oldest order
  Print(" Last order: ",TimeToString(orderopentime[index]));        //--- print result
  orderopentime[index]=0;                                           //--- reset value so it will not be found again
  index=ArrayMaximum(orderopentime,WHOLE_ARRAY,0);                  //--- find second oldest order
  Print(" Second Last order: ",TimeToString(orderopentime[index])); //--- print result 
  orderopentime[index]=0;                                           //--- reset value so it will not be found again
  index=ArrayMaximum(orderopentime,WHOLE_ARRAY,0);                  //--- find third oldest order
  Print(" Third Last order: ",TimeToString(orderopentime[index]));  //--- print result

Here is an example.
